One day after the asteroid impact believed to be the catalyst of the extinction of the dinosaurs, 14 million feral “pig-boar” hybrids magically appear on post-impact, Earth, scattered across all 7 continents.

Would they be enough to delay the dinosaurs’ extinction (at least the carnivores’)? By how long?
